    1-046-GoingViral-ModelingScenario
    Students participate in a simulation of the spread of a viral disease in the classroom and model the process with a logistic differential equation. The simulation uses random numbers and the entire class participates.

    1-084-GoingViral-ModelingScenario
    Students employ randomization in order to create a simulation of the spread of a viral disease in a population (the classroom). Students then use qualitative analysis of the expected behavior of the virus to devise a logistic differential equation.

    1-039-StochasticPopModels-ModelingScenario
    We develop strategies for creating a population model using some simple probabilistic assumptions. These assumptions lead to a system of differential equations for the probability that a system is in state (or population size) n at time t.

    For quantitative cancer models to be meaningful and interpretable the number of unknown parameters must be kept minimal. We focus on a tumor hierarchy of cancer stem and progenitor non-stem cancer cells.

    2014-Wang-EtAl-Estimating Mixed-Effects Differential Equation Models
    When multiple replicates of measurements are available for the dynamic process, it is of great interest to estimate mixed-effects in the ODE model for the process. We propose a semiparametric method to estimate mixed-effects ODE models.
